Coming from behind twice and we still managed to break the five-win curse while setting a new record. Very impressive, especially considering we were playing with 10 men until Watkins went off.

People will claim he created the equaliser, but not for me — Mavropanos is one of the worst defenders I’ve ever seen, which explains why they’ve only won three matches all season. Bowen, on the other hand is actual quality, though he was clearly brainwashed by Danny Dyer into signing that seven-year new contract.

3 points. Next!

Wan Bissaka’s defending for Morgan’s first goal looked really weird. Why did he run back towards the goal line (to try and block) instead of just trying to challenge Morgan.

If we had the money, Bowen would be the signing we need for that right side👍

I'm sure some of us will come on and slag off certain players and praise others after today's performance.

Personally, I couldn't give a shiney shite.

If we repeat what happened today in all our remaining fixtures, then I'm not going to complain or moan.

We won and another 3 points on  the board is what counts.

It is what counts, yes. This is a discussion board and as such when things aren’t going tickety boo we will pass remarks less than favourable. For instance, our complacency is our worst enemy, we reduce that aspect and we can go all the way.

We shall afford him with the money we get from “injured” Martinez in January.

I do not want that fat lad from Hereford. I said the same about Fred West.

So you don't believe he is injured then? Nice. Although I would like another keeper to be bought with that money so we are not kicked out of the Europa.

Well, wow !!!!!
What a strange game. I think we would all agree that some individuals didn’t have their best game, but collectively we are just a juggernaut.

It was almost like we won that game when we decided, ‘bollocks to this, we’ll go and score now.’ And we did, 3 times.

Morgan had 2 moments of absolute genius, but there is absolutely no doubt that MOTM was Unai.

It’s an emotional game, it was frustrating at times, but we ground out ANOTHER ONE !

We are in very special times.

Ha, on the Lucas Digne ‘another one!’ clip you can hear Konsa say ‘Morgan saved my life’

A bit like the players, I don't panic watching the Villa these days. Always feel we can go up a gear when we need to.

Fantastic win. Well done lads.

I'm feeling the same. I felt comfortable on Thursday and again today. It's how we react when we do eventually lose which will be the test.

It's genuine. Lower back, which can take a while to shake. He got hit late against Arsenal and went down holding it.

We all know how this run ends....it just has to be them  >:(

Not with this team. We’ll smash them.
Im sensing shades of boxing day 1989, we’ll do them lot 3-0.
Didn’t see the game today as my lad had a match over in a very cold Tamworth (won 2-1 against top of the league, so great day all round). Have seen the goals back and the third is a beauty. If we come through the next three games with 5 or 6 points, I believe we are in the mix.
